Hidden away in the hinge, "Silent System" combines exquisite design with astonishingly gentle action: perfect for kitchen and living-room furniture with interiors designed to reflect their external elegance. The new "sensys" generation of hinges from Hettich unites a consistent drive for design towards the luxurious convenience of lifestyle furniture.

Optional soft-closing elements on the hinge or in the cabinet come with the drawback of being visible. They also demand additional work in process while they are being fitted on site. The new "sensys" hinge with integrated "Silent System" conceals the mechanism so all the user notices is the luxurious feel it provides. This includes the automatic soft-closing of furniture doors from an unusually wide opening angle of about 35 degrees. The regulated and gentle closing cycle, coupled with reliable furniture-door closure at the press of a finger, appeals to the emotions.

In addition to invisibly integrating "Silent System" soft closure, "sensys" also comes in a new and elegant design: A stylish cover cap hides the hinge cup. The button that releases it for removal cannot be seen from the front. The hinge and mounting plate unite to give a harmonious appearance. Meanwhile, the linear-style mounting plate appeals to design purists.

The narrow reveal of just 4 mm, also on sharp-edged furniture doors in thicknesses of up to 22 mm, is shown to be just as much an advantage for kitchen and furniture manufacturers as the shallow cup depth of 12.8 mm. Added to this is the fact that the new mounting plate can also be used in conjunction with the "Intermat" hinge range. This is particularly beneficial when using special hinges.

"sensys" is available for all of the main opening styles. This includes 110° hinges for overlay and inset doors as well as half-overlay applications, wide-angle hinges for overlay and half-overlay doors, W 30 and W 45 hinges for overlay and inset doors as well as W 90 hinges for inset doors. The hinge can also be used on aluminium-framed doors.
